Mickey Daniels had put them in refrom school, and they'd just given out *brand-new sledgehammers.* (Mush might well have been available, too). What was up with all the footlights gags in the umpteen Rascals shorts involving kiddie talent shows? They could never come up with any good taillights gags for the kiddie talent shows, sooo....
Who was really The Hunchback Of Notre Dame, and did he ever put out any fires?

Spanky McFarland. And nope, he mostly sat around waiting for his clock to alert him of when it was time to take his medicine.
So we know some of the characters' nicknames - Spanky, Alfalfa, Stymie, Buckwheat, Wheezer, Farina, Chubby, Froggy... the list goes on. What were some these kids' birth names?

They don't know. They were just little babies then.
Who is the monster and who is the man?

Shaft. John Shaft. He is (it is said) a complicated man, understood only by his woman. Nonetheless, it is generally acknowledged that he would risk his neck for his brother man.
Was Petey on strike for "Little Daddy?" What's up with that there "Brownie?"

What really happened was Stymie got a dog named Brownie. When Petey overheard Stymie saying that he "can't wait to show Petey my Brownie," he got excited. You see, Petey loved sweets, and brownies were his absolute favorite. But when the the truth was revealed, he felt he'd been cheated, and angrily sat much of production out until someone fed him a brownie. Now if you'll excuse me, I'm off to the kitchen to bake some brownies myself.
Why is this no place for Algebra?

The kids hadn't gotten to 9th grade yet, so it was more a place for Division and Multiplication (who were lemurs) and Simple Fractions (a tapir).
When the real-life John Brown was captured at the federal arsenal at Harper's Ferry, did he say "ask me again and I'll knock ya down"?

Naw, John Brown had already been "Stymied!"
What was up on Watt Street?

All of the sky? That would be difficult.
If Mickey Daniels and Mickey Gubitosi fought Mickey McGuire, who'd win?

Muhammad Ali, or, as he was previously known, Cassius Clay. That guy could beat anyone, even Butch (though Liston took a dive against him). I would throw Mickey Mantle in there, but he was a drunk.
Adjusting for inflation, shouldn't the song now be "Jimmy had ninety cents?"

Me thinks it'd be more like "Jimmy's Got 99 Problems, But A Nickel Ain't One!"
"By the way, Gubitosi woulda won over Daniels and McGuire by a teardrop, but Burston woulda taken 'em all by a good bawling!"
So who's stronger, Darla Hood or Janet Burston?

I don't know. I'm kind of this way about it (makes so-so motion with hand).
Where were Spanky and Buckwheat during Mr. Hood's birthday bash?

Outside cowering in the bushes in their underwear. Y'see, there was this hedge...

Naw, 'Ol Cap's taking us to a fancy French Restaurant for something called morage, that all the kids love!
(Side note: I typed "Morage" in the Google English to French Translator, and the translation came up as "McCartney." Weird!)
What was Mickey Daniels' profession in his 'Our Gang' comeback appearance?

Importer... er, no... exporter... um... an importer/exporter!
